Bandai 5067155 - RG 1/144 RX-78-2 Gundam Ver.2.0 Real Grade Kit  [B-5067155]

RG 1/144 RX-78-2 Gundam Ver.2.0 Build Overview

The RG 1/144 RX-78-2 Gundam Ver.2.0 updates the classic Mobile Suit Gundam design with cleaner engineering and sharper surface detail. This release balances accurate silhouette with mechanisms that let experienced hobbyists and progressing builders explore dynamic posing while keeping the model stable on display.

Articulation and Part Separation

The RX-78-2 Ver.2.0 features redesigned joint assemblies that give a wide range of motion for display poses. Undergate molding reduces visible nubs, and the careful part separation makes it easier to paint discrete colour areas and retain the Gundam's iconic look.

Skill Level and Essential Tools

This kit is moderately challenging and best suited to builders who have assembled a few kits before. Recommended tools include side cutters, a hobby knife, sanding sticks, and tweezers to help with precise trimming and small part placement.

Finishing, Painting and Surface Prep

Light sanding on seam areas will prepare parts for paint and decals. Panel lining will bring out mechanical details, and a matte coat helps protect the finish and reduce shine for a consistent final appearance.

The RG 1/144 RX-78-2 Gundam Ver.2.0 is a solid choice for collectors who value engineering that supports both display poseability and aftermarket painting work.
